One Piece: Fist of the World

Early the next morning, while they were still sleeping, an old man came to their house.

After a commotion, everyone got dressed and sat down in the living room.

"I heard some noises here last night, so I guessed you were back."

The old man looked at Rhodes and Nelu, his eyes full of relief, and then turned his gaze to Nia and Gray lying on the bed.

"Is this the partner you found? It seems that you have decided to go to sea."

"Long time no see, Dr. Wolfe."

Rhodes greeted the old man with a smile. In their childhood, they received a lot of care from the other party.

When they first crossed over, Rhodes was just a little kid, and Nelu was even younger. If Dr. Wolfe hadn't taken them in, it would be difficult for the two children to survive in this world. Even if Rhodes had a golden finger, they might have died before they could develop.

Dr. Wolfe looked at the people in front of him one by one, his eyes full of emotion.

He had watched these guys grow up, whether it was Rod and Nero, or later Luo, as well as Pekin and Xiaqi. In his mind, they were just like his children, and he always knew that they were not the kind of guys who were content with being ordinary.

Not to mention, since childhood, they have been actively preparing to go to sea, and he has seen all of this.

"As a friend, this is all I can do. Come with me!"

With a mysterious smile on his face, Wolfe greeted these people and led them to the woods behind the mountain.

Rod's eyes flashed with understanding, and he took the lead to follow Wolfe. Nero, regardless of Gray's resistance, lifted him up from the bed, threw him on Bebo, and followed him into the depths of the woods.

"Here it is, my laboratory."

The group walked through the woods, and after about four kilometers deep into the woods, Dr. Wolf stopped in front of a stone wall, then knocked on a certain part of the stone wall, revealing a switch. After pressing the switch, a door suddenly opened on the stone wall.

Several people were surprised, followed Dr. Wolf, and walked into the secret room behind the stone wall. Walking down the long steps, the walls on both sides of the steps were obviously also modified, emitting a faint light.

Pekin couldn't help but say:

"I didn't expect you really have a secret laboratory! Damn, you actually kept it from us for so long, this is a secret base that no one can refuse!"

"You bastard kid, you didn't believe what I said all the time!"

"You are the bastard old man, such a great secret base is hidden so deep."

Pekin's eyes were full of novelty and excitement, with a sense of adventure.

"Huh? Scientist!?"

Gray, who was lying behind Bebo, suddenly became energetic, tilting his head and looking around at this hidden laboratory.

"Let me tell you, I'm a genius inventor. I've been working on a flying machine technology. Once my invention is completed, it will be much more convenient to go to other islands in the future. Everyone can take a flying machine to arrive directly instead of drifting on the sea."

"I see, it's really a good idea. My name is Gray, and I'm a scientist. My dream is to build a warship that is more powerful than the legendary [Pluto]!

However, what is the power of the flying machine you just mentioned, and how to keep flying in the sky? And if it is flying in the sky, if it encounters strong convective weather, how to ensure the safety of the flying machine, and how to cushion and land smoothly when landing..."

Following Dr. Wolf's idea, Gray opened his mouth with a series of questions, and at the same time he quickly imagined it in his mind.

"Wow! What a great ship!"

"I didn't expect there was a ship hidden under here!"

"Is it for us?"

A few exclamations interrupted Gray's chattering. Everyone followed Wolf's footsteps to the bottom of the laboratory and saw a beautiful ship parked on the underground river.

But...

"This ship is not completely finished yet."

This is obviously a half-finished ship. Only the general framework has been built, and the design of the mast and deck has not been completed.

"Yes, I was going to give you my submarine, but you didn't seem to like it very much."

Facing Wolfe's slightly resentful eyes, Rhodes turned his head away embarrassedly.

Although the yellow submarine that accompanied Luo all the way in the original book was very good, he still preferred a more ordinary sailboat with a huge deck where he could bask in the sun.

"You guys, just help me. I think you also want to finish your own ship by yourself!"

"Let me do it!"

Gray jumped off Bepo's back excitedly and looked at the half-built hull in front of him excitedly.

He finally had the opportunity to realize his idea!

"Let me make it clear, there is no material here that can support you in building a super battleship."

"I know, I know."

Gray answered perfunctorily, and rushed to the half-finished hull, stroking it obsessively, with all kinds of thoughts turning wildly in his mind.

"I just want to remind you not to set up too many cannons, we don't have so many people on the ship to operate them."

Looking at Gray who had fallen into his own world, Rhode could only remind him loudly in his ear.

From his dream of building an invincible battleship that surpasses [Pluto], we know that he is a heavy firepower enthusiast.

After getting the other party's affirmative answer, he turned to look at Dr. Wolf.

"It seems that our shipbuilder wants to complete it alone."

"This kid should still be injured."

Looking at the bandages wrapped around Gray, Wolf hesitated.

"Hahaha, didn't you also improve the device immediately after you fell from the sky before?"

Humph!

Hearing Rhode talking about his embarrassing story, Wolf snorted coldly, then waved his hand, signaling them to leave here quickly.

"Then, let's go buy some things. There are a lot of things to prepare for going to sea."

In the next few days, Gray was obsessed with the construction of the pirate ship and discussed various plans with Dr. Wolf fiercely.

Bepo and Luo helped them in and out. They have helped Dr. Wolf do some mechanical work since they were young, and they have some experience in this area.

Moreover, as they were about to part, Luo also wanted to spend more time with the old man who had always taken good care of him.

As for Pekin and Xiaqi, they took Rhode and his friends to the nearby Happy Town to buy supplies. Unlike Rhode and his friends who wandered here later, these two grew up here since childhood and knew the situation of every store here.

Time flew by, and half a month passed quickly. Their pirate ship, accompanied by Gray's high passion, was improved day by day, and finally completed in the morning.
